Early Access Review
Yet another unplayable game accepting your money TOO EARLY for early access. Since when did steam become kickstarter? People want SOMETHING playable for their money. They are not on steam to hand out donations.

You don't even need to make playable games anymore. Just make an attention grabbing description and PROFIT!

Here are the things you can do:

Gather plastic, wood and scrap.
Deficate everywhere (I'm serious. They squat and leave a turd pile. And they do this a lot in full view of everybody).
Build an outhouse.
Kill German Shepherds (who die and immediately become "rotten").
You can mark out a zone for storage but once your people put stuff there, there is apparently no way for them to get anything out again.

The UI is cryptic and impossible to figure out.
There are no icons for anything (just white box place holders for them).
There are no descriptions of anything (white boxes with no text)

While I was playing, a foreigner came to my camp and everybody just stood around taking dumps in full view of her.

I explored nearly the whole map and there were no enemies. I am still trying to figure out what this game is supposed to be. Is it a zombie game? Is it a mad max type game? Is it a game where I can build an outhouse, a fence or a cardboard bed and play it like The Sims?

I guess we will have to wait and see. It's a cool idea, I hope it eventually becomes something worth playing but for now thumbs down.

LOL look at all the dumbasses who thumbed down this review. I agree with you OP. It was painfully obvious that this game was just a cheap money grab. Keep in mind that the price was originally $14.99 for the longest time. $14.99 WITHOUT THE ABILITY TO EVEN SAVE THE GAME. I feel sorry for anyone who was genuinely scammed out of their money for this game, but anyone still defending it, needs to jump off a cliff.

You are right, as we see what happened with this title. There is no development as the dev had to take a full time job. Now he plans to work on weekends to apply some of the promised features.
This game was too early released even for early access. I am sorry I wasted my money but hey, it was less than a pizza and a beer would of made. I'd rather had that pizza instead.

I would definitely buy this game once at least in 50% stage where it actually you can call it alpha

@Shamus727

theire is a difrence betwen early alpha and to early alpha.
in early alpha, you usealy get a game with some basick funktions you can test and they lets you catualy play the early game
maia is a good exampel of that

this one is to early barely alpha

yes you can build a few things, but it hardly matter becourse they have no real effect
you can build a fence around your storidge place, but it wont keep the dogs out, they will just use the same opening as your settelers and go in theire to shit

you can build some beds, but your settelers doesnt even use them

the shacks you see in the video, is comming soon
and it could easily be 6+ months from now before we actualy see them :(

basickly all you can do is put your settelers to work, and even that will fail soner or later when they become stuck...

I'm willing to give the game a chance as I like the consept.
but right now, 95%+ of players that buy it will feel it a ripoff where they get nothing at all for theire money

"Yet another unplayable game accepting your money TOO EARLY for early access."
and you bought the game rather than keeping an eye on it to monitor their progress and decide if it's worth your money? That's on you dumbass.

Waaah it's supposed to be early alpha waaaah. Go back to your shill hole.
Shamus 25 Apr, 2016 @ 2:51pm 
so you have under 2 hours, refund it and use your money to buy a dictionary, then maybe you can understand what early alpha is.

In multiple places it is stated to not buy this game unless you really want to be part of the early development.
